Retirement Planning in Atlanta

Retirement, at its best, is the longest vacation of your life. It is a period to pursue goals and leisure that weren’t available to you during your working years. By making the most of your working years, you can enjoy retirement with financial peace of mind. But how do you assess the financial risks of retirement while you have time to correct or change your course? At Scarlet Oak Financial Services, we want to be your retirement guide.

We can help with your important
retirement questions

  • What is important to you for your retirement?

  • Are you able to take a measured view of your investment strategy and risk tolerance?

  • Have you reviewed ways to maximize your Social Security benefits in a way that coordinates with your other retirement income sources?

  • Are you prepared to live into your 90s or beyond?

  • Will your assets last as long as you live, or will you run out of money in retirement because you have spent too much?

  • Can you financially weather future inflation and rising healthcare costs?

  • Have you developed multiple income streams?

We help you prepare for retirement with a multilayered plan
